Psalmorum 23

1 psalmus David Dominus reget me et nihil mihi deerit

A Psalm by David. Yahweh is my shepherd; I shall lack nothing.

2 in loco pascuae ibi me conlocavit super aquam refectionis educavit me

He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters.

3 animam meam convertit deduxit me super semitas iustitiae propter nomen suum

He restores my soul. He guides me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.

4 nam et si ambulavero in medio umbrae mortis non timebo mala quoniam tu mecum es virga tua et baculus tuus ipsa me consolata sunt

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me. Your rod and your staff, they comfort me.

5 parasti in conspectu meo mensam adversus eos qui tribulant me inpinguasti in oleo caput meum et calix meus inebrians quam praeclarus est

You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil. My cup runs over.

6 et misericordia tua subsequitur me omnibus diebus vitae meae et ut inhabitem in domo Domini in longitudinem dierum

Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in Yahweh’s house forever.
